As the largest CO2 emitter in defence, the Royal Air Force has committed to achieving net-zero by 2040 – 10 years ahead of the UK Government's 2050 target.

The RAF consumes close to four million litres of aviation fuel a year and while its aircraft are the focus of the drastic change needed, the RAF's 36 stations must also undergo transformations.
